Easy to apply (no need to spread before heatsink installation) and easy to clean with supplied NA-CW1 cleaning wipes. Not electrically conductive and non-corroding thermal grease: no risk of short-circuits and safe to use with all types of heatsinks). Trusted Noctua quality with excellent long-term stability: recommended storage time up to 3 years, recommended usage time on the CPU up to 5 years. 10g pack for around 9-60 applications (depending on CPU size, e.g. ~9 applications for TR4, ~60 for LGA1151); includes 10 NA-CW1 cleaning wipes.

Better than Thermal Grizzly

In my humble opinion, it's easier to use and works better than any other high-end thermal compound I've used, and pretty much all of them. I'm using an I7 5960X processor overclocked to 4.6GHz and putting out 227W when running Prim95. The second best paste I've used is Kryonautt and this new NT-H2 beats it by about 3°, of course unless you're putting out a ton of heat the difference you'll see is less.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Nothing here

Top quality thermal paste at a good price

This thermal paste runs cooler and is easier for me to apply than Grizzly Kryonaut. It's several times cheaper per gram. If you don't know which thermal paste to choose and don't mind spending a little more, get this one. This is truly a high quality thermal compound at a better price than any other high end thermal compound.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Noctua! Fans & Cooling

I used to use the Grizzly Cryonaut theme, which I still recommend. Recently switched to nt-h2 and I have to say it's great. Easier to apply than Thermal Grizzly, much more consistent results, at least in my testing. Performance wise it is in the 1C to 2C range compared to a Thermal Grizzly. I've used this on GPUs, CPUs and gaming consoles and they work great for all.

Pros
  • Rugged Finish
Cons
  • Crumpled Packaging

Noctua quality but probably better with the cheaper NT-H1

NT-H1 was my pick for the last dozen PC builds so naturally I believed NT-H2 would take the throne, this is my new favorite. Can't say I'm not disappointed to pay the premium price for the NT-H2 as I feel the price hike wasn't worth it. Using it over NT-H1 with my NH-D15 resulted in no noticeable thermal improvement. I tried many different application methods (centre, line, double line, cross) and my peak temperatures during the Prime95 stress test were still the highest at the same temperature

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • Some flaws

Save money and buy mx4

It sucks. I originally had a mx4 for my 9900k, I wanted to see if there was a better paste. I overclock mine to 5MHz on all cores. With Kryonaut I maxed out at 82c with 360 aio on Cinebench r20 (4 tests per reel), on the first Nt-h2 test I already hit 86c. 2nd test, it just kept going up to 92c. I stop after that. Bought Nt-h2, IC graphite gasket and Cryonaut. MX4 performs better. The graphite IC pad works the same as this one. So if you want the best. Buy cryonaut. If not, buy mx4 cheap and…

Pros
  • Non-conductive and non-corrosive thermal compound: no risk of short circuits and safe to use with all types of heatsinks)
Cons
  • No paint required

One of the best, if not the best

First, what the heck is Revain? Warm? Transparency? Thickness? Are these properties? Okay, put 5 for heat. Seriously, he's taking it well. Transparency gets 0 because it's almost the opposite of clear. Thickness is 5. Fits great, easy to work with if you're not blind. Seriously, I did a lot of research. Bla bla bla. It's good. It lasts long enough that I don't have to worry about three years between uses. Now I overclock with a Noctua cooler 8700k to 5.1 at 1.39V. Transcoding works at 5.1GHz…

Pros
  • Easy to install (no greasing needed before installing the cooler) and easy to clean with the included NA-CW1 cleaning pads
Cons
  • Not bad

Excellent value for money Internals

The price of this thermal compound can be high. But Noctua never tries to get the cheapest product, and Noctua is famous for adding extra features. Inside the box you'll find a huge tube of thermal paste, some cleaning wipes and a very handy spreadsheet. Noctua claims it's not necessary to apply their compound, but they recommend different schemes to get the best coverage depending on the size of the heatspreader. to expensive connections. They all work so closely together that you'll hardly…

  • 10g pack for approx. 9-60 applications (depending on CPU size, eg ~9 applications for TR4, ~60 for LGA1151); includes 10 cleaning wipes NA-CW1
